Just got some more power out of my 318

So I changed my plugs to Autolite 3923s today and while doing so found out one of the boots wasn't on it's plug. So not only do I have the boost from the plugs, I'm also running on a whole other cylinder!

Well it has some other issues (no parking brake, bad ABS sensor) so it has some codes up anyways.

seemed alright to me. Know better now. This is my first real vehicle that I'm getting to know. It's a work in process, so it will be a bit before I know it inside and out,
